Very nice waterproof speaker for its size. This speaker came in very high end packaging, nice first impression (think of a high end smart phone presentation). The unit was easy to pair and begin using. It appears this speaker is designed in a way that you can put a strap around it to secure it to something like a boat, dock, ATV etc. I will point out that once strapped down you may have a hard time getting to the controls on the top. Speaking of the controls, they are pretty interactive. As soon as your fingers get close to them they light up. Nice touch. The dry storage on the bottom is a nice touch as well. You could fit multiple credit cards, key card, chap stick etc. It looks like it is even designed to fit a small MP3 player within this storage compartment as it contains a USB changing port and 3.5mm AUX IN within this compartment. (Source button on top would allow you to select this port) There is a USB POWER OUT on the side to charge your phone/MP3 along with another 3.5mm AUX IN. The sound quality is nice for the size. Volume is not bad either. I would have liked to hear a little more bass and I do get a little distortion at full volume. I have heard better sound from ‘Non’ Water, Dirt, Snow and Drop proof units. My experience is that when you purchase a unit that is waterproof you lose a little sound quality, but at this price I was hoping for a little more hence my 4 star rating. I absolutely love using this in our hot tub though; just put it on the edge with no worries if it falls in. (I actually did drop it in intentionally and it floats like advertised and kept working with no problems.) Below are my pros and cons: Pros: Quality made and good looking unit. Interactive light-up buttons Dry storage compartment Durable Built-In Mic for phone calls Charging port Water proof, Dirt Proof, Snow Proof, Drop Proof Floats Good Battery Life Nice Bluetooth range
Cons: Would like more bass . Controls not accessible if strapping down
Bottom line, Overall a very nice look and the size is great for portability. I found it to sound best when close by or in a contained area. If you are looking for loud music feel with bass, maybe look at the larger unit. With that said, the quality of the build is very good, and hey, it floats!

If you are looking for an all around great vacuum, this might be the one for you. This is my second Shark Vacuum since our Dyson. Overall I prefer the Shark vacuums to any other Brand to date. They are lighter, easier to use with on-board accessories and can get into smaller areas such as under tables, beds etc. HINT: In lift-away mode attach the handle direct to the power head (no extension) and use to clean stairs. This finally makes cleaning steps a breeze. I also own an Oreck and the standard (Light blue) Shark Lift-Away Speed. I have been pretty happy with the Shark. However, the new Duo Clean system is pretty genius. They put a smaller, soft roller before the cleaning roller to enhance the cleaning power. This makes cleaning hard surface floors much better. The light blue Lift-Away Speed has a hard surface attachment you can use which does a very nice job, but I am usually to lazy to go grab it for smaller kitchen and hall area. So I prefer the new Duo Clean for hardwood type floors. The power head on the Duo is about 1-1/2” narrower than the standard ‘Speed’ model. My guess is that Shark did this for more maneuverability in small areas. My wife has a small home cleaning business and she prefers the Oreck simply due to the weight and slimmer size. It is easier for her to load in the vehicle. But with that said, she will use the new Shark periodically for a deeper clean and the need to use some of the accessories. The ‘Under Appliance Wand’ works great for under the stove, washer and dryer etc. And the ‘TruePet® Mini Motorized Brush’ works very nice on fabric furniture to remove pet fur.
Below is a list of my pros and cons of this unit:
Pros: -Duo Roller is great for hard floors and also assists on providing a deeper clean on the carpet. -Easy Remove/Clean Rollers -Nice LED lights -Lighter than past vacuum models -Can get under beds, dressers and tables with ease. -Easy to clean steps. -Easy to use onboard accessories -Useful Under Appliance Wand and TruePet® Mini Motorized Brush
Cons: -Small collection cylinder (plan on emptying multiple times per cleaning if you have pets)
-Slightly harder to pull back due to the added roller (but it does clean great)
Bottom line - If you are looking for an all around great vacuum with lots of accessories and ease of use, you will not be disappointed with this vacuum. I must say it is the best vacuum we have owned to date. ** I did receive this unit in exchange for my unbiased and honest review. Trust me, I will tell it like it is as I too dislike fake reviews.

This was my first try at the new ‘Mesh’ wireless style system. I was using a nice Asus router that served me pretty well. This 3 part system allowed me to get full strength Wi-Fi pretty much through my whole home. (2,200 sq. foot ranch + Basement).
Set-up is only done through the Linksys app you download to a phone or tablet. Basically all your settings are done here as well. No more typing in the ip address of the router to make settings. I found that a little weird, but it works fine.
SETUP - Packaging was high end with a very nice presentation.
The Setup guide consists of a 4x9 card that simply tells you to download the Linksys app, that is all you get. I will say the app does walk you through the setup process pretty well.
I had one small issue connecting one of the nodes, but It might have been my fault as I gave the new router the same name as the old one which may have caused a conflict. Once I ran the setup for the nodes again, all went well.
This system does not allow you to choose between 2.4 and 5.0Ghz network as it automatically connects your device to the fastest speed. Not sure how I feel about that as I would prefer to force some devices to stay on the network of my choice. (This might be a control issue on my part)
SPEED - Speeds are great. I recently switched to a new internet provider and I am getting 60-70 Mbps download and 10 upload. No complaints with that.
APP - The app takes a little getting used too, but once you navigate it a few times it seems to work well. It shows you all the devices connected as well as how they are connected (Ethernet, 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz). If you have any interference due to others around you running on the same channel, there is a nice feature that will search out to find and optimize to the best channel.
Parental controls are VERY limited. Don’t expect much here. All you can do is add blocked sites manually, or simply shut down your child's web access completely. That part is nice if you want to force them off the web and get to bed ;-)
All in all this is a nice Wi-Fi option if you need to spread out your Wi-Fi network in a large home that you simply cannot reach with one single router. It is a bit pricey, but gets the job done very well.
I would think this style of Mesh routers will become much more popular as you have no signal loss from node to node. Recommendation to Linksys: Offer a Black color option, white does not fit with every décor.
Fitbit Charge HR Wireless Heart Rate + Activity Wristband: This heart rate and activity tracking wristband is built to capture your movements and health patterns all day long. Easily monitor your heart rate so you can maximize your workouts, learn about your sleep quality and monitor progress on your goals.
This is my third Fitbit. I like the brands appearance and function. I must say that the battery life is not as good as I would like. I have to charge at least every third day. I also had one just stop working on my after a few months, but Best Buy was great and stood behind the product and replaced it for me. Many people I know also use this same tracker and the overall view has been positive. I would like to see a battery level indicator on the next upgrade. You only see the battery display when it pretty much too late.

I must start out by explaining that I first purchased Nextbook 11. While it was pretty good for the lower price tag, it just did not have enough power to run my Quicken program well and the storage was pretty limited. I went to Best Buy and after reviewing the options, landed on this Dell. Best performance I found for the price. the Screen is much more refined than many of the brands I first looked at. It does seem to appear slightly darker on the left and right edge depending on the angle you view it, but that could just be mine. (the reason for 4 stars and not 5) I have been very happy with the performance. Boot time is quick and Windows 10 seems to run nicely. I would recommend for someone like myself that is looking for a personal computer for daily activities. Have not played any games yet, but my guess is it would do a pretty good job. Of course the i7 would be better for gamers.

Nice computer. Lots of nice features. I do miss having a DVD slot, but I guess downloading everything is the new thing. I purchased this for my daughter and she loves it. We did need to exchange the first one due to a loose USB port. The exchange went very easy and the new one works great. I would buy again.
Featuring ADAPTiQ® audio calibration, the Bose® Lifestyle® 135 system delivers wide, spacious home theater sound. Connect and control up to 6 HD video and music sources. Flexmount® technology enables versatile placement options.
I do love Bose products, but this one was a little disappointing. I do have a larger great room with a cathedral ceiling, so maybe it is just my house, but I was not impressed with the sound quality. Not enough low end and did not fill the room like it did at the show room even. It does set up nice, and the build seems to be the quality you expect from Bose. Very nice remote that controls everything connected. I ended up returning this unit and buying a new receiver and connecting back up to my surround sound speakers in the walls, much better choice for me. I think if you have a standard ceiling and a rectangle or square room, you would probably be happy with this unit, but not great for odd size larger rooms. Pretty pricey as well.

Yes, I paid a little more than other brands, but WOW, well worth it. The picture quality is amazing. Can't imagine ever needing anything better like a 4K. I am viewing HD through a Satellite provider and the picture quality is perfect. Smart features work nice as well. Internet browsing is simple with the extra keyboard I purchased. (Not a must though) We have not rented any 3-D movies yet, but you can view many short videos / documentaries that are preloaded or through the internet. They look amazing as well. Very happy with this purchase.
Internet content most enjoyed: Pandora and YouTube
Enjoy your media with this Samsung BD-H5900/ZA Blu-ray player. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.
Bought this to compliment new TV. Works very nice. No problems at all. I have not used some of the Smart features since my TV already has that, so I can't provide commentary on those features. I don't think you will be disappointed.

The iPad is a great device, especially if you pair it with an Apple Pencil. A full-fledged computer, the power of a digital work environment literally at your fingertips. But one thing is still not great: the Apple Pencil slipping around on the iPad's glass surface feels unnatural and the pencil tip gets stuck on fingerprints and smudges. It simply doesn't feel right. If you're like us, you miss the accuracy of writing on paper. Paperlike, a screen protector that emulates the natural feel of paper when writing and drawing on the iPad. The most significant challenges in developing the Paperlike were finding the right friction while keeping light refractions at a minimum. And keeping the material smooth enough, so it doesn't eat up the pencil tip like sandpaper (a lot of regular matte screen protectors do that). That's why we developed a unique surface technology called Nanodots. These microbeads are evenly distributed across the foil and allow for a natural paper-feel while keeping as much of your iPad's brilliant display quality as possible. Join tens of thousands of artists, students, and notetakers around the world who love Paperlike. And finally, make your iPad the truly magnificent device it can be.
